I’m sitting in the back yard on my cabana. My husband left for a five-day men’s retreat in Vancouver and I was looking for some time alone. So, this is perfect and I get to do what I want when I want! I do miss our morning cuddles and pillow talk about how we slept and sharing our dreams.

I also think about what it would be like to be single again. I’m sure I would like parts of it; however, I truly enjoy being a part of the team. I listen to my friends talk about their marriages and it seems that living with someone will have its irritations – whether you are married or not. It all comes back to taking care of ourselves. In marriage, I have learned to show up as love every opportunity I get. Lately, I haven’t done such a good job with that.

I have been having a little anxiety around my upcoming West Coast Book Tour that my friend and I are going on to promote our books. I said “Yes!” wholeheartedly to this experience because she knows the ropes and I can just tag along. I am excited that I will be a Speaker and conducting workshops at three different venues from Mt. Shasta, CA to Portland, OR and then on to Seattle, WA. Talk about coming out of my comfort zone!

Through this process, I learned to speak up about my needs and know that my views are important. My business coach is working with me in various aspects of my tour and that makes me feel love and supported. It was the best decision I made because I realized that I can’t do this alone – and I really don’t want to. I am not so great with follow-up, but with her support and love, I know I can move forward.

I am looking at this trip as a grand adventure and leaving the outcome over to God. In the beginning of my journey with this book, I said to God, “Okay. This is your book and, if you want it to manifest, you’ll have to send me some help.” And help is what I have received all along the way.

Thank you, God … Love Never Dies!
